Biography

Samuel was baptized on 17 March 1706. The baptism was recorded in the Reformed Dutch Church of Kingston, New York. He is identified as the child of Isaac Davidse and Jannetie Mauritse. Witnesses were Christoffel van Leuven and Elisabeth Maurits. He was one of 35 children baptized that day, so he may have been born as much as five or six months earlier.^[1]

Kingston marriage notice #991 in Hoes, dated Oct. 1 1743, announces the marriage of Zamuel Davids and Elsje Robbertson and says both were resident in Marbletown.^[2]

• In his testimony at the courtmartials for The Marbletown Disaffection of 1777 on 2 May 1777, Jacobus Samuel Davis reported that his father was Samuel and that he had a brother named Jacob, who went with Jacob MIddagh to participate in the Marbletown Disaffection with their father's permission. More research is needed.
